Reviewers Needed for the 2017 Division H Outstanding Publications Competition
Greetings from the 2017 Outstanding Publications Committee! This committee solicits submissions and coordinates the review and awards process, with winners announced at the AERA Division H breakfast and nationally. And every year, we depend on generous volunteers like YOU to serve as peer reviewers for the outstanding publications competition. Typically, reviewers will be assigned just 3 or 4 papers to read, so please consider serving. Keep in mind it’s a nice thing to add to your CV! Please click on this link to let us know you are willing to review! https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/S2MVTW8
